      Best decade ever especially being a kid and during summer break we’d get on our bike and be gone all day but we’d sneak back and get water out of the hose and our little “gang” would all bring a snack for lunch and sit in the clubhouse. I broke so many bones as a kid but it was worth it. We were truly lucky.

    Let's be honest, guys. Malcolm McDowell, who played Alex in "A Clockwork Orange", is without any doubt one of the most underrated and unfairly neglected actors in history. Poor man never got a big leading role since he magnificently portrayed Caligula in 1979, which is a real shame, since nobody beats him when it comes to interpreting characters with mental disorders

    Thank you for the time and effort you put into these videos. It jogs so many memories from my childhood.
    Perhaps my biggest memory from 1971 didn't make the cut for this video. It was on the morning of February 9th, 1971 when a section of the San Gabriel mountains thrust upward about two feet unleashing a magnitude 6.4 earthquake in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles killing about 65 people. The Olive View hospital and V.A. hospital crumbled as did several freeway overpasses.
    It was the first of six large earthquakes I would experience while growing up in Southern California. Acquaintances of mine living in the midwest have told me they get advanced warnings of tornadoes while an earthquake comes with no warning. That may be true; however, tornadoes scatter their belongings for miles. Earthquakes toss my belongings into the middle of the house. Much easier to clean up

    I was born in 1971. Looking at the films and TV of this year, it still had a lot of the look and feel of the 60s.

    In 1971, I was just 17, do you know what I mean? (Sorry, I couldn’t resist).
    I love how you bookended the video with a Mark Hammil commercial at the start and then with him at the end in Star Wars. Nice touch.
    I sort of remember the ‘70’s, but what Cindy Lauper sang is true. Girls really do just want to have fun. Finishing high school and spending as much time outside of the house as possible were my priorities.
    I’m very much looking forward to the 1972 video.

    I wasn't born in the 70s but oddly enough, the sounds of the 70s is so soothing too me. I don't know why lol! Probably from my grandmother's love of old western movies. Or maybe from my parents habit of watching reruns on Nick at Night and playing 70s jams on the car radio during our nightly drives home from the sitter (aka grandma's house). 70s entertainment was boring when I was a child, now it's like pulling on a comfy well-loved sweater and sitting by the fire 😄

    Greatest day of my life: 1971 Roberto Clemente brings home World Sieries. I was 11. 8 years later I was selling Coke at Pirate games when Willie Stargell did the same. In 2008, my 11 year old nephew from Philly won the world Series and I called him at 11 pm and told him"Remember this moment, one of the best of your life."

      That's awesome! I worked (underage) at Fenway Park when I was 15.
      Also, I remember when Roberto Clemente died. That's was tragic news. I think it was a plane crash on a Humanitarian mission to Nicaragua.

    The Flintstones was meant for adults as a sitcom, but became favored by children. Those cigarette adds were intended for adults, but later co-opted by anti smoking lobbies as a sticking point to erroneously show they were targeted at children. If you can imagine, people then assumed that parents had domain over their children, not Corporations or the government.

    This, for cars, was the beginning of the ending muscle cars, the transition from the muscle car era to what many referred to as the lemon era, when newer cars were breaking down more than older cars by the end of the decade.

    These shows are great. I was born in the early seventies and can remember so many of these events. It was an incredible time to be alive. America had changed so much. It was the end of an "old" America and the beginning of a new one.
